His circuit was not approved, far from it.
His driver's license either.
A 15-year-old teenager was arrested in the parking lot of the sports hall in Lesneven, north of Brest, in Finistère, while he was performing a rodeo in a car.
Alerted by residents annoyed by these nuisances, the gendarmes quickly arrived on site to apprehend the too young driver.
The vehicle actually belonged to his girlfriend, just over 18, who was in the passenger seat.
The latter was the holder of the driver's license.
A saliva screening was performed and revealed recent drug use.
The young couple will soon be summoned to court to answer for their actions.
These facts, which took place on March 16, allowed the gendarmes to recall that a rodeo is punishable by a prison sentence of at least one year and a fine of at least 15,000 euros.
